No title link, just the announcement.

"the 2nd annual Austin Analog Synth Meet is here!

Location:
Crystal Mexico Gallery
3208 Grandview St, Austin, TX

When: Sunday, October 15, 3:00pm

Bring an analog synth (or several), some headphones
(or a small amp), and a power strip. If you don't have
a synthesizer, come anyway for a voltage-controlled
mind-warping experience.

please repost as much as you like! also, be aware
that the space is a funky old house/gallery and might
not have enough tables - so i would suggest bringing a
stand or something suitable as well.

see you there!

Update: Some background info came in via Peter Grenader on AH:

"We have finally completed one hell of a large custom job done for a gentleman in the Netherlands, who will remain nameless here as a courtesy...unless he wishes to contribute that info himself.

Over a year ago he sent us a four panel Serge system which had two incomplete panels. One with only two NTOs, and one with only a Wilson Delay and Quad Mixer. Both were kits made in the eighties, but in very very good condition internally with metal faceplates.

We redesigned both of these incomplete panels so that Panel 1 included four Serge-fitted Model 15's along with the NTOs, and Panel 2 included a Quad Lowpass Gate, a Dual Processor, a Doepfer ADSR retrofit and two of Ken Stone's ASRs along with the Wilson Delay and Quad Mixer.

The project had many design challenges, most of which involved how to fit all the electronics into the shallow Serge Chassis box. It took much longer than we originally expected and I thank him for remaining calm through many many tests to his patience.

Go here for photos, scroll to Dennis' panels. There is also a second page of pics that gives you a lot more details:

Before you ask...unfortunately we are no longer taking on custom job like this. This one was a monster, enough fun for a lifetime!

Now onto completion of Larry's Milton and Bryan's Milton Expander...finally!

Title link takes you to a new digital synthesizer resource site. This is a hobby site by OriginalJambo, so don't expect too much. Currently there are some ESQ-1 samples and info up. The following appear to be coming next: Alesis Ion, Ensoniq ESQ-1, Kawai K1, Roland D50, Roland Juno6, and Yamaha DX7. Nice cat.

"Bitstream3X, "3X" stands for "3 Axis" because the Bitstream 3X features full control over three different Axis- X, Y and Z. A joystick allows control over two (X and Y), while an ribbon controller is used for the Z axis. With 35 knobs, 8 Sliders and 16 buttons, the Bitstream gives you total hands on control of any DAW software and comes with an astounding 13,000 presets including Reason, Live, Reaktor, Traktor, Absynth, Cakewalk and of course Cubase. Digital DJ’s will love the MIDI Cross fader and the 8 track motion sampler allows automated recording of the movements of the knobs, joystick, crossfader and ribbon controller."

Editor for the Alesis ION and Micron from the makers of this DSI Evolver editor. I found this one in the comments of this VSE thread. Make sure to read the thread if you are considering it. If anyone has experience with thier Evolver editor, please feel free to comment on the quality and overall experience.

"This module is a "tribute" module from Ken Stone, based on the awesome Steiner-Parker Synthacon VCF.

Unlike the original, this version allows signals to be fed into all inputs simultaneously. If the same signal is used in all inputs, the result is reminiscent of a phaser.

The real fun starts when you feed different signals into each input, then you get a frequency based "interpolating scanner", where panning between different sound sources is possible, though also subject to the frequency at which they are running. I have never heard an effect like it before.

This is a great filter, by the way, with lots of character. It sounds very Moog ladderish with the low pass input, and mixing VCOs into the LP, HP and BP inputs gives some great effects."

I love the knobs on the module.
